Bobby Madden has discussed his reasoning and choices regarding three critical VAR moments at Ibrox. The former SPFL referee shared his perspective on social media regarding the penalty given to Connor Goldson, the reversal of Fabio Silva’s simulation after VAR review, and the disallowed goal by Cyriel Dessers due to a foul in the attacking phase.
The match ended in a thrilling 3-3 draw, with both teams scoring six goals in a lively derby. The Hoops took a 2-0 lead in the first half, while Rangers responded with two goals, including James Tavernier’s penalty. Despite late equalizers, Adam Idah’s goal secured a surprise win for the visitors, followed by an added-time stunner from Rabbi Matondo.
Former referee Steve Conroy, covering the game for Record Sport, provided his expert analysis on the key incidents. While he agreed with Madden on two decisions, Conroy strongly criticized Silva’s penalty, calling it an ‘appalling decision.’
